Today, I rented a 4x4 to take my wife to a secret secluded beach for our anniversary. I got as close as I could to the spot and parked on the beach. After a few romantic hours we returned to find the car half way up the windows with water. I forgot it was king tide. FML

Tide or no tide, who parks their car SO close to the beach (By that I mean the actual sea) that it gets washed with water? YDI, but at least you got a free wash! always look on the bright side of things.

You deserved this completely. I mean, it wouldn't necessarily kill you to park away from your spot, it would actually make it more romantic, walking down the beach, holding hands. It's just a case of forgetfulness, and tbh, a bit of bad planning

Yeah, I'm sure a snorkel would seal off every door and window, and make the car completely waterproof, and not to mention, the car was a rental, most, if not all, rentals don't have any modifications of that sort.

kikib, way to be a complete blond. tide refers the the water level. there's high tide and low tide. idk why op called it king tide. if you park a car near the water and it is low tide, if you wait long enough the tide rises. get it? good lord.
